What you get

IT professionals in cybersecurity, cloud, DevOps and platform engineering, from Germany and Europe, employed permanently by you.

• Permanent employment from day one. Your new employee is employed directly by you. No temp work or staff leasing, no freelancers.
• Candidates your job ad does not reach. We approach professionals directly: in Germany those who are not currently looking, in Europe those who never see job ads from Germany. In German, English, Greek or Spanish.
• Willingness to change settled before you invest time. Motivation, salary range, timing and relocation we clarify in conversation, not from the CV.
• Dossiers you can check. We back professional claims with the exact place in the CV or reference, and check certificates against the provider's verification portal where one exists. What the candidate states themselves, such as salary expectation or notice period, is marked as their own statement.
• No visa procedure with an EU passport. No quotas, no waiting time, no trips to the authorities for you.
• Your new employee can focus on the work. Housing, authorities, bank account, insurance, family: whatever comes up alongside the job, we prepare and see through to the end of probation.

How a placement works

Six steps, two fixed points of contact.

1. Analysis of the role. We analyse with you what the role needs: tasks, core skills, team, salary range and your selection process. This becomes the search profile we measure every candidate against.
2. Placement agreement. Before the first introduction we conclude the placement agreement with terms and conditions plus a data protection agreement. It sets out the fee and the guarantee, governs the confidential handling of dossiers and applies for twelve months to every candidate we introduce. You pay only when you hire a candidate we introduced.
3. Search. We approach suitable professionals directly, in Germany and Europe, in four languages. We reach Spanish- and Greek-speaking IT professionals particularly well, including from Latin America with an EU passport. We check every candidate against the search profile before you see a dossier. Within two weeks of signing you receive the first profiles or our clear assessment of what is realistic for this role.
4. Dossiers and interviews. You review the dossiers with our assessment for each criterion. If you would like to meet a candidate, tell us when suits you; we coordinate everything else. Before each interview we prepare the candidate for your company, afterwards we gather feedback from both sides.
5. Employment contract and start. Until the start date, the notice period with the previous employer is usually still running. We use that time to prepare the move, housing and registration. So your new employee can get going on day one.
6. Probation. Check-ins with your new employee in weeks 1, 4, 8 and 12, then as needed until the end of probation. The conversations stay confidential; for you, we remain the point of contact if settling in hits a snag.

What it costs, what you risk

Fee only on success. 20 % of the gross annual fixed salary plus VAT, due on the start date, payable within 14 days. Before that you pay nothing: no upfront costs, no fee for introductions. Support while settling in is included. The company pays for our service, never the candidate.

Money-back guarantee up to month 6. If your new employee leaves in the first month, you get the full invoice amount back, then month 2: 75 % · month 3: 50 % · months 4 to 6: 25 %. As a credit note against your next invoice; if no further mandate follows, we transfer it on request. The guarantee lapses only if the reason lies with you, for example a redundancy (section 8 of our terms and conditions).

Our interest is yours. Our fee is fully earned only after six months. We do not poach the people we have placed with you.

You stay free. No exclusivity, no minimum term: you can end the search at any time. Costs arise only with the employment contract.

How we work with data and AI

We work under the AGG (German General Equal Treatment Act) and the GDPR. For AI we have fixed, written rules, aligned with the EU AI Act. In practice that looks like this:

• People decide. For every position we set the criteria with you and review the documents criterion by criterion; for every assessment we record where it is backed up in the CV or reference. Our own software supports us by organising documents and finding the evidence. No program decides about a candidate: which profiles you see, we decide personally after our own interviews, and every rating in the dossier has been checked closely and approved by us.
• Data only with consent. Every dossier reaches you only with the candidate's documented consent, for your company specifically. You can use the documents within your selection team for the decision without having to obtain consent yourself.
• Dossiers by qualification. You receive what you need for a decision: career history, evidence, language level, our assessment. Details unrelated to suitability, such as age and marital status, we leave out. So you hold nothing you would have to explain if equal treatment questions arise.
• Documented. Our AI rules are set down in writing. On request you receive a short process record for your compliance files.

We place people and do not give legal advice. Where you need a legal assessment, our documentation provides the basis.

Who we are, your points of contact

A boutique IT recruitment firm. Two managing directors, four languages. We take on only as many positions as we can support closely. That keeps the quality equally high for every placement.

Questions and answers

"International candidates: is that not a lot of effort?"

Not for you; that effort is ours. With an EU passport there is no visa procedure; the move, registration and settling in we prepare and see through.

"And if the new employee leaves again?"

Then the money-back guarantee applies, including when you end the employment during probation because it is not the right fit: everything back in the first month, then on a sliding scale until the sixth month. It lapses only if the reason lies with you, for example a redundancy. We have the same interest as you: that it lasts.

"What if we already know a candidate you introduce?"

Tell us within seven days of the introduction and no fee is due. Otherwise: if you hire a candidate we introduced within twelve months, for this or another role, our fee is due.

"How well do the candidates speak German?"

That varies from candidate to candidate. If German is a requirement for the role, we check the level in the very first conversation and introduce only those who meet it. The language level is stated in every dossier.

"What happens after we get in touch?"

We reply personally, on working days within 24 hours. Then we discuss the position you want to fill, or answer your questions first, whichever you prefer.

"Why not just keep searching ourselves?"

You can. Just add up what the open position costs: projects slip, the team covers the gap, security work is left undone. Our fee is due only once the position is filled.

Partner agencies in Switzerland

• Commission split on success, no dossier fee
• Client, closing and employment stay with you
• Candidates clarified upfront: motivation, relocation, salary range
• Mandates from CHF 100,000 gross annual salary

This section is addressed exclusively to recruitment businesses licensed in Switzerland. It does not constitute an offer to Swiss employers. Are you a company in Switzerland? Write to us at info@iseeit-talent.de. We connect you with the SECO-licensed partner agencies we work with: that way, our preparation and support of the candidates flows into your hire as well.

What we deliver

Pre-qualified IT professionals with an EU passport and residence outside Switzerland for your mandates. Outreach in German, English, Greek and Spanish. Detailed, structured competence profile with evidence; availability, salary expectation in CHF and willingness to relocate clarified.

• No candidate fees. We take nothing from the candidate, not even the registration fee permitted in Switzerland. A candidate who pays has different incentives from one we advise.
• No competition for your clients. We do not act as recruiters in Switzerland and do not want to. We do not approach people resident in Switzerland.
• We clear the way for the candidate. Arrival, registration, settling in and whatever else comes up alongside the job: prepared and supported until the end of probation. That lowers the risk of your mandate falling through.

What the partnership costs

Commission split on success. No upfront costs, no fee for dossiers. We are paid only once your client has paid you.

If the candidate pulls out. If you refund your client the fee because the candidate does not start or leaves during probation, and you document it, we repay you our share in the same proportion.

What we are looking for: recruitment businesses with a cantonal and federal licence that fill IT mandates from CHF 100,000.

We will send you the exact split and the full terms on request: info@iseeit-talent.de

Questions and answers

"What is in it for us?"

Matching profiles in cybersecurity, cloud, DevOps and platform engineering that rarely surface through job ads: approached in their language, prepared for country, salary and relocation. You present your clients with candidates that job ads in Switzerland do not reach.

"How complete are the dossiers?"

Competence profile, salary expectation, availability, willingness to relocate: clarified before the dossier reaches you.

"And the licence?"

It is yours and stays yours. We do not place in Switzerland ourselves: client, closing and employment run through you, under Swiss law.

"And if the candidate pulls out?"

If the candidate does not start or leaves during probation, we repay our share in the same proportion in which you demonstrably refund your client. And we stay with the candidate until the end of probation so that it does not come to that.
